Out of respect for Kenny (owner of Grogg's), Grogg's staff and other patch holding clubs, the officers of the Fresno Chapter W&F have decided as a whole that we will NOT enter Grogg's with colors on. I know we will stop in often just not while we are on bike or when we have our colors on.
THANKS to all of our Chapter members that participated this weekend. The toy Run here in Fresno got pulled off without a hitch. Good times, good food and good ride, not to mention there will be some happy kids with new toys. Thanks a bunch guys. I hear that the Johnny V Toy Run was great and a great turn out. Thank you Fresno Area for your participation.
